Subject: format=flowed joining paragraphs
Date: Wed, 23 Jul 2003 11:34:02 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <wf1wue9ntp1.fsf@bellatlantic.net> (raw)
Occasionally I receive format=flowed mail where two paragraphs are
joined that I wouldn't expect to be joined:
|first paragraph second paragraph
When I look at the raw message, I see the following (where $
represents the end of the line):
|first paragraph $
|$
|second paragraph$
(Sometimes there are two blank lines between the paragraphs.)
I know a trailing space is supposed to join two lines as a single
paragraph, but a blank line is supposed to break paragraphs. For this
case, the author intended two paragraphs, I would expect to see two
paragraphs, and indeed Mozilla and Mulberry display two paragraphs, so
I think Gnus is handling this case incorrectly.
I'm using Gnus 5.10.2, XEmacs 21.4.13.
Cheers,
-Mark
